*comp for consulting associate

Curious as well

Also interested in hearing more!

Super late to this convo, but for anyone else who ever stumbles along, the NJ office is very very small. Unless you feel particularly strongly about living in NJ, you should work in the NY office just for the sake of not being a "satellite" office. Work is the same content, comp in NY is typically a little bit higher because of HCOL adj. (but that sort of comes out in the wash). If you're married and your partner refuses to head north to NYC, then take the Jersey satellite, but o/w just go to the much larger NYC office.

Cons: Heard culture isn't great, Not that much variety in projects

EY-P is offering same fixed salary :(

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick. No penalties for late work, taking excuses for attendance, lower academic and behavioral standards... We were beginning to make so much progress on transforming our school culture, but this year is erasing that and then some. Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?
